The short answer is no.
The long answer is no, not if you are using standard 100-120 volt or 220-240volts found in most (all?) countries
The following is a simplified best case scenario, which incorrectly assumes a power factor of 1.
Power = Volts * Amps
Watts = Volts * AMPS (Actually VA = Volts * Amps, but VA=Watts in best case
scenario)
but 10kw > 240 * 32.

simply four but also aplying diversity they may be increased depending on situation
To answer this question a voltage must be given.
To answer this question the voltage value and whether the system is three phase or single phase needs to be given.
See Discussion Page
It could be a single phase 1/4 HP motor running on 230 volts AC.
Depending on the distro... you need to limit the output per phase. You can use 2 16amp and 1 32 amp per phase.Yes, IF the generator has overcurrent protection and each circuit on your distro is individually protected as well (most are). You will not be able to load the distro to it's full capacity of 125 amps (obviously), you will be limited by the genny's rated output.As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.If you do this work yourself, always turn off the powerat the breaker box/fuse panel BEFORE you attempt to do any work ANDalways use an electrician's test meter having metal-tipped probes(not a simple proximity voltage indicator)to insure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.
In the U.S. single phase at 200 amps is average.

That is 20.8 kVa but a 208 v single phase supply is very rare. 208 v is usually three-phase, with 120v between neutral and the live wires.
16.81 amp.
Answer for UK, Europe and countries running a 50 Hz supply service.Common single phase meters for a 240 v system can take a 60 amp or sometimes a 100 amp load for domestic use.
No; drawing more than the rated amperage from a transformer will cause it to overheat.

You can't. Currents in three-phase systems are measured in each of the individual line conductors.
No, your amp draw will not be reduced. It will actually be slightly higher because the transformer will not be 100% efficient. Contact TEMCo Phase Converters at (800) 613-2290 if you have any more questions.
500 mcm (or 500kcmil) conductors are used for 400 amp 480v single phase or 3 phase systems. The wire AND THE TERMINALS must be rated for 90o Celsius.
